An IGMPProxy init.d Script. (For Fedora/CentOS only again)

Yes, I’m at it again. This time it’s for IGMPProxy.

IGMPProxy is an IGMP snooper/proxy daemon for routing multicast packets across networks. Pretty useful for IPTV services like Telus TV or AT&T U-Verse.

Again, Google didn’t result in a working script, although a Russian tried to and failed to produce a working init script for IGMPProxy. Daemonize is required to run the daemon because for some reason the ‘daemon’ as claimed by IGMPProxy doesn’t work for some reason.
